Great place for a football weekend with some friends and their kids. The location is on a quiet street and walkable to the University. Very close to Corby’s. The place was clean. Very nice furniture. Nice comfortable memory foam beds. Plenty of bedroom space for a group. Plenty of places to dine and hangout. The kitchen was well stocked and the coffee maker was nice. Overall one of the best game weekend places we’ve rented.

Thank you so much for the kind words! We’re glad you and your group had such a great CFP weekend and enjoyed the home, especially the space, comfort, and location. It’s great to hear the kitchen and coffee setup hit the mark too ☕️
We’d love to host you again for another game weekend anytime!

We drove five hours to get to South Bend and asked for a possible 3 PM check-in we were told no we would only be able to check in at 4 PM. The regular check in time. Then later message saying it would be 5 PM and the people were still cleaning. We were able to drop off bags, but we’re not able to access anything in the house and finally at 7:50. I messaged host and she said they were cleaners were leaving. Looking for compensation of 200 due to disturbance of stay with four hour late check-in which was unacceptable. Host said it was due to previous gas, but that was not our problem and we deserve to be compensated.
